About Me

I like to keep fit. I run on my elliptical a lot. I love swimming. I can beat my mom at arm wrestling. (When my shoulder isn't broken) I have a guest pass for ECCW. I don't like hockey and that makes me a bad Canadian.
I like sudoku puzzles. The harder the better. I don't drive. Porcupines rule. I love photography and vintage wine posters. I paint and draw with some competency. I like doing random PhotoShop tutorials.
I spent a year living in Scotland. I've also been to England, Portugal, and Spain. I listen to way too many British bands and I have a cd buying addiction. I go to the Legion at least once a month. With my parents.
I don't understand people that like ketchup on their macaroni and cheese. Bacon is my favourite food group. Then dessert. Hence the workouts.
I get paid to Google. I get paid to model. I get paid to space dash space. On rare occasions I get paid to hand out hotdogs on bbq day. Are you still reading this? MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile Generator

My Interests

Working out, painting, walking doggies from the animal shelter, other stuff... I wrote it over there under "about me"

I'd like to meet:

As in famous people? I already met my idol.

Music:

Travis, Sam Roberts, The Beatles, The Libertines, British bands that start with "the"...

Movies:

Movies I watch more than once: The Gods Must Be Crazy, Wayne's World, Jesus Christ Superstar, A Hard Day's Night

Television:

I rather enjoy those saucy Glaswegian fellows from How Not To Decorate. I also like Big Brother.

Books:

I'll read just about any genre

Heroes:

Fran Healy, Didier Agathe, Mr. Dressup
Sports
I like(d) Celtic Football Club, enough to go to most home games and follow them to Portugal. Other than that I don't really watch sports. Unless ECCW counts? I'm not athletic in the least, but I try.

My weekend was just okay. On Friday night I went to wrestling with Sofi. It was pretty fun, other than the part where we had to run for our lives. Azeem couldn't spot me in the audience to take off hi...

bus creeped

Today I got majorly creeped on by a stranger at the bus exchange. I was reading a magazine and he wouldn't stop talking to me and asking me stuff. And he was like "what dating service do you use?" I w...

Today did indeed rule. I got my free chai latte first thing this morning, and it was still hot. Then at lunch time they were giving away free huge paintings. There was only one left, and it was a...

I decided to go to the mall after work today. Blah! It was sidewalk sale madness. I went in heels, thinking I'd be fine if I hit up the shoe stores first. There was nothing worth buying. So I tottered...
